Abstract
One embodiment provides a system for printing a document from a portable device. During operation, the system captures an image of an optical code that identifies a printing device, wherein the optical code is displayed on a panel of the printing device or is printed by the printing device. Next, the system transfers information identifying the printing device to a remote printing service, thereby allowing the remote printing service to print a document at the printing device.
